Best TVs for gamers

If you're a hardcore console gamer, you'll want a flat panel television that not only looks good, but has fast response times to ensure there's no lag between moving the controller and seeing the effect on-screen. We've put together a list of some of the best televisions from Sony, Panasonic, LG and Samsung you can buy if you are on the hunt for excellent image quality and a dedicated 'Game' mode.

Sony's 52in BRAVIA KDL-52NX800 LED television has an excellent design and a swathe of Internet features that cut out the need for a media centre PC. Image quality is good for an LED television, but a few flaws stop it from beating rival plasmas.

The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.

My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.
